1. Field of the Invention

The present invention relates to a method of bonding vulcanized rubber to resin. 2. Description of the Prior Art

Among recently developed various thermoplastic resins, resins called as engineering plastics are known. These resins are polyamide resin, polyester resin, polycarbonate resin, polyacetal resin, polysulfone resin, silicone resin, polyphenylene oxide resin, polyimide resin, ABS resin, methacrylic resin and the like, and many of them are excellent in mechanical strength, heat resistance, creep resistance, chemical resistance, electrical property, dimensional stability and the like, and can be widely used in place of metals, such as iron, zinc, aluminum and the like, under various use conditions.

In general, industrial rubber products are composites composed of rubber and metal; rubber and plastics; and rubber and inorganic substance, but major part of the rubber products are composites composed of rubber and metal. However, in recent industrial rubber products, the rubber-metal composite tends to be replaced by a rubber-resin composite. Industrial rubber composites are now required to have a light weight, excellent corrosion resistance, chemical resistance, wear resistance and electrical property, and a low friction coefficient.

When the composites of rubber and plastics are produced, the rubber must be tightly bonded to the plastics. In the conventional method for bonding rubber to plastics, a chlorine-containing adhesive is applied on the surface of a resin molded article obtained by the extrusion molding and the resin molded article is bonded to an unvulcanized rubber through the adhesive layer by vulcanization. However, this method of bonding resin molded article to rubber through vulcanization has the following drawbacks. That is, the adhesion strength between the resin molded article and the rubber lowers or the resin molded article cracks due to the repeating cooling and heating cycles or to the heat aging during the vulcanization step, and further the adhesion strength varies depending upon the kind of the resin. Moreover, when thermoplastic resins having a low melting point are used among thermoplastic resins, the resin molded article deforms due to the high temperature and pressure during the vulcanization.

In order to obviate the above described drawbacks, the inventors have made various investigations with respect to treating agents for the surface of a vulcanized rubber in a method of bonding a vulcanized rubber to a resin. The surface of the vulcanized rubber is treated with a treating agent to form a treated rubber surface region, and a previously melted polyamide resin, polyester resin, styrene series resin or acrylic resin is bonded to the above treated rubber surface region through an injection molding or extrusion molding. The inventors found a method of bonding tightly the vulcanized rubber to the resin to produce rubber products having a high dimensional accuracy, and accomplished the present invention.

That is, the feature of the present invention is a method of bonding vulcanized rubber to resin, comprising treating the surface of a vulcanized rubber with at least one member selected from the group consisting of halogen, halogen generating compound and halogenoid to form a treated rubber surface region, and bonding a heated and melted resin selected from the group consisting of polyamide resin, polyester resin, styrene series resin and acrylic resin to the above treated rubber surface region by the injection or extrusion molding.

According to the present invention, a vulcanized rubber having an optional shape is previously prepared, the rubber is treated with at least one of halogen, halogen generating compound and halogenoid at the surface to be bonded to a resin, the thus treated vulcanized rubber is placed in a metal mold, and the above described specifically limited resin previously heated and melted is bonded to the above treated rubber surface region by injection or extrusion molding to produce a composite composed of the rubber and the resin bonded tightly thereto at the interface. Moreover, in the present invention, vulcanized rubber is treated with a solution or the like at the surface to be bonded to resin without subjecting the surface to mechanical treatment, such as buffing by means of emery paper, grinder and the like, and therefore composites having a precise and complicated shape can be produced.

FIGS. 1a and 1b are a plan view and a sectional view respectively of a test piece used for evaluating the bonding method of the present invention; and

FIGS. 2a and 2b are a side view and a sectional view respectively of another test piece used for evaluating the bonding method of the present invention.

The following examples are given for the purpose of illustration of this invention and are not intended as limitations thereof.

A rubber composition having a compounding recipe shown in the following Table 1 was vulcanized under a condition shown in Table 1 to produce a vulcanized rubber. From the vulcanized rubber were cut out rubber pieces 2 for test pieces shown in FIGS. 1a and 1b, which would be used for the 90° peeling test described in ASTM D429, Method B, and conical rubber pieces 2 for test pieces shown in FIGS. 2a and 2b, which would be used for the tensile test described in ASTM D429, Method C. In FIGS. 1a, 1b and 2a, 2b, the numeral 1 represents resin and the unit of the dimension of the test pieces is mm.

As rubber surface treating solutions, acetone solutions containing 2, 5, 10 or 20% by weight of each halogenoid of DCTS (N,N-dichloro-p-toluenesulfonamide) and TCCA (trichloroisocyanuric acid) were prepared, and each of the acetone solutions was applied by means of a brush to the vulcanized rubber pieces 2 shown in FIGS. 1a, 1b, or FIGS. 2a, 2b at the surface to be adhered to a resin.

As polyamide resins, nylon-6 (CM 1001 made by Toray Co.), nylon-66 (CM 3001N made by Toray Co.) and nylon-12 (Daiamid made by Daicel Co.) were used, and each of the polyamides was dried for 8 hours under a condition of 120°C and 5 mmHg.

Then, the above treated vulcanized rubber piece is placed in a metal mold, and each of the above described polyamide resins was bonded to the treated surface of the rubber piece through an injection molding by means of an injection molding machine under an injection condition of 230°C in the case of nylon-6, 250°C in the case of nylon-66 or 180°C in the case of nylon-12 to produce a test piece of a composite composed of the rubber and the resin as shown in FIGS. 1a, 1b, or 2a, 2b. In FIGS. 1 and 2, the numeral 1 represents the resin, and the numeral 2 represents the rubber.

Then, the test piece shown in FIGS. 1a, 1b or 2a, 2b was subjected to an adhesion test according to Method B or Method C in ASTM D429, respectively. The obtained results are shown in the following Table 2. It can be seen from Table 2 that nontreated vulcanized rubber does not adhere to polyamide resin, but vulcanized rubber treated according to the method of the present invention adheres tightly to polyamide resin.

Adhesion of acrylic resins was evaluated in the same procedure as described in Example 1.

The kind of used acrylic resins and the injection molding condition are as follows. Methacrylic resin (Acrypet MD made by Mitsubishi Rayon Co.) was injection molded at 220°C, and a blend (Metamarble made by Teijin Co.) of methacrylic resin and polycarbonate resin was injection molded at 260°C

The obtained results are shown in the following Table 6.
